I'm writing a law review article about the First Amendment right to free exercise of religion, and its interaction with non-discrimination statutes based on sexual orientation and gender identity.

Here's some of my introduction to the article, setting the stage for a deeper analysis of the law.

I'm specifically looking at the right of a non-church-related employer to discriminate against gay or transgender employees based on religious belief, as against a law prohibiting job discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.

This looks pretty interesting.  I can't wait to see the analysis.
